Code ability should be one alternative among other technical tests.
It seems very odd to freeze a technical test in a museum of bygone
technology.

If one cannot learn at least a minimal 5 WPM code then they have
absolutely no business obtaining an amateur license.

That's like saying that if you don't know how to do octal math you have no
business using a computer. Where is the logic (no pun intended) ? Most new
amateurs have no interest in cw. If they have the theory down (and the
bucks for the equipment), let 'em join! If they are too stupid, they'll
electrocute themselves anyway.
